Palestinian owned 🇵🇸 the owner was so friendly, he genuinely wanted to chat with everyone. I only stopped in for an iced tea, to charge my phone, and to pee. But the vibes were incredible - it felt like a movie scene. A man reading a newspaper, a couple chatting and sipping their coffee, a tv show playing from the …
We loved this place!!! Originally we wanted to go somewhere else but the line outside was crazy so we found Cafe Fransisco and even next day we went back for another bagel😄 we were here in January 2025. I can recommend this place 100%.
Ziad has created a true sanctuary with his cafe. The soft jazz, the delicious breakfast, and the overall energy is unmatched. Absolutely recommend this local joint!
Ziad is extremely friendly and plays nice jazz music in the background. A great cafe on the corner of a quiet block in a the beautiful north beach

Many of them have moved on now, but those of us who are …
Such an authentic cool place to get breakfast! We got our food very quickly and it was hot and delicious.
A small super friendly neighborhood coffee shop. We were actually on our way to a nearby bakery that was way too crowded/very long lines. So we took a u-turn and ended up here and loved it. We highly recommend and look forward to returning.
Had the best breakfast at this cafe on a recent trip to San Francisco. The owner is very warm and welcoming as soon as you walk in the door, making all the food and coffees himself. I had the Francisco bagel with lox and an iced coffee, and both were fantastic! Super cute atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating, and …
